The synthesis parameter space of bismuth catalyzed germanium nanowires by chemical vapor deposition is determined. The process window for high aspect ratio nanowires is found to be extremely narrow. The optimal conditions are found to be 300 degrees C and ...
In this paper the effect of varying temperature, pressure and chemical precursors on the vapour-liquid-solid (VLS) growth of silicon nanowires (Si NWs) have been investigated. Some aspects of nucleation and growth mechanisms are discussed. Control on Si NW ...
Focused Electron Beam Induced Deposition (FEBID) is a rapid prototyping technique for the investigation, production and modification of 2 and 3-D nanostructures. The process takes place at room temperature, in the high-vacuum chamber of a Scanning Electron ...
We report the observation of a characteristic incubation time in the growth of silicon nanowires using the vapor-liquid-solid growth mechanism. This incubation time manifests itself during the growth process as a characteristic time delay in the range of s ...
Germanium nanowires were synthesized using thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and indium as a catalyst. The process parameter space for successful growth was studied. By optimizing the growth temperature and gas pressure, high aspect ratio germanium n ...
In the frame of this thesis, two similar high current DC arc (HCDCA) plasma sources were investigated in a low gas pressure regime (10-3-10-2 mbar). One of them was initially designed for the epitaxial growth of silicon and silicon germanium (LEP), the oth ...
Odd electron diffraction patterns (EDPs) have been obtained by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) on silicon nanowires grown via the vapour-liquid-solid method and on silicon thin films deposited by electron beam evaporation. Many explanations have bee ...
The occurrence of heterostructures of cubic silicon/hexagonal silicon as disks defined along the nanowire < 111 > growth direction is reviewed in detail for Si nanowires obtained using Cu as catalyst. Detailed measurements on the structural properties of b ...
Properties of thin films such as the crystallinity of silicon deposited from SiH4 - H-2 discharges are governed by the plasma composition. Therefore, it is crucial to measure the plasma composition in order to understand and optimize the deposition rate, d ...
The constant energy consumption and world-wide demography expansion add to the potential risks of ecological and human disaster associated with global warming. This makes it a necessity to develop renewable energy technologies such as photovoltaic energy. ...
